status
Show a read-only rollup of the definition of done — every exit condition with its state, properties, and open reason — without running any auditor.

GitHubUser Input
You MUST consider the user input before proceeding (if not empty).
Purpose
/akka:status prints the current definition-of-done manifest: every exit
condition grouped by Definition-of-Done type, with its state (open, green,
or red), its properties (provenance, waiver, applicability), and any open
reason. The two locked process-integrity gates, PROC-AUDITOR-COVERAGE and
PROC-ADEQUACY-REVIEWED, appear among the conditions like any other.
The manifest reflects the project's own state — waived, struck, and signed-off
conditions appear as such — so it agrees with /akka:conform.
Status never runs an auditor. It does not build, test, lint, or probe. That
is the whole difference from /akka:conform: machine-checkable conditions stay
open here until conform evaluates them. Once conform has run, the two agree.
Because it changes nothing and costs nothing, status is the command to reach for during an autonomous build — it shows progress without interrupting the machine.
Outline
Render the manifest. Call
akka_ec_statusfor the project directory. This resolves the exit-condition library against the org governance floor and the project's own strikes, waivers, and sign-offs, then renders the manifest. It is read-only and runs no auditors.Get the counts. Call
akka_ec_rollupfor the same directory. It returns the status counts by tier and by Definition-of-Done type as JSON. Use this as the headline so the user sees the shape of the build before the detail.Report plainly. Lead with the rollup: how many conditions are settled, how many are waiting on the user, how many are blocked outside the project. Then surface the conditions that are
openorred, each with its user-facing reason — the reason field is the action.State plainly that the auditors were not run, and that the machine-checkable conditions are therefore still
openrather than failing. Do not present an unevaluated condition as a problem. Offer/akka:conformas the way to resolve them.Do not restate internal condition ids, check keys, or the words "auditor" / "coverage gate" / "adequacy review" in the summary. Offer "say 'show details' for the full checklist" and show the raw manifest only if asked.
Key rules
- Read-only, always. Never run a build, a test, or a probe from this command,
and never call
akka_ec_conformorakka_ec_summary— both run the auditors, which is precisely what status must not do. - Never characterize an unevaluated condition as passing or failing. It is
openbecause nothing has looked at it yet, and saying otherwise is the one way this command can mislead. - Do not change the project. No sign-offs, no strikes, no waivers, no mode changes as a side effect of showing status.
Done When
-
akka_ec_statuswas called and the manifest was resolved without running any auditor. -
akka_ec_rollupwas called and its counts led the report. - Conditions that are
openorredwere surfaced with their user-facing reasons (no internal ids, no machinery words). - The report stated that the auditors did not run, and did not present unevaluated machine-checkable conditions as failures.
- Nothing in the project was modified.
